Skam Records inaugurate their Kasm imprint with a three-tracker of tough techno mutations from UK techno legends James Ruskin and Mark Broom’s collaborative project The Fear Ratio. Last seen on Ruskin’s Blueprint label a few years back with two 12″s and an LP that twisted the industrial Birmingham-via-Detroit-rooted sound both producers have made their names with but in keeping with a great British lineage of experimental electronics unleashed upon the world by labels such as Skam it’s a no brainer that the duo’s return is on the legendary Mancunian imprint. Starting off the EP on a roll with the clenched-fist bare-bones techno grind of ‘FRT3’ a strong kick breaks its way through the digital mist while ghosted synths drift around the edges just out of reach. Before the club cut with the nexxx level phase of ‘201222’ sounding like SND on a Downwards tip the track skitters through the speakers with a lack of oxygen and off-kilter twisted snares snaking through the mix while the glitch garage work out of ‘Arel’ closes out this first Kasm cut with a shattered industri-dub techno banger giving a sideways glance to the work of Skam label mates Bola and Mr.76ix.
